Anyway, it leads me to wonder - what other pieces of future software (given NSMB 2) will Nintendo slack on yet again to feed the masses' lack of standards? I mean, a product like NSMB 2 getting ONE person to praise it is already enough to set that tone.---Fanboys, especially Nintendo fanboys, are what's horribly WRONG with the video game industry.

^ ....or a remake? After all with all the whining and bs about the 3DS selling faster than the DS (because people ignorantly don't take into account the fanbase increasing with more and more of children, and the times since the days of the DS), yet the 3DS has yet to sell as much as the DS, let alone have a developed library (almost two years now) like the DS does. Why? Because of those two things - ports and remakes.

It is becoming the renaissance system of gimmicks and ports and remakes more than ORIGINAL and fresh software. The Vita is undeniably doing incredibly dire for a similar reason, yet the 3DS is in the same boat considering most of its library is of ports and remakes. So why isn't it doing as poor?---Fanboys, especially Nintendo fanboys, are what's horribly WRONG with the video game industry.

It's already outsold the DS by this point in it's life and has a well established library.

Remakes aren't the laziest creation as work is put into a remake then it into put effort into a port. On top of that this system has like 2 remakes, and a few ports which if you actually know your gaming, pretty much all system have their share of ports and really if it's a good game a port does no real harm to a system.

Hell I really don't even think there are that many ports , excluding VC since those those count I can only think of a few games that are ports.---"Not really just shows how stupid everyone in that universe is. I know instead of just snipping these terrorists lets risk an apocalypse durp"

Yeah I consider that a few, you can sort of count them on one hand, almost but honestly it's not a lot of ports, and hell some of them do add stuff.---"Not really just shows how stupid everyone in that universe is. I know instead of just snipping these terrorists lets risk an apocalypse durp"
